Type
species.
Gumilla adspersus
Navás, 1912
: 189
(by original designation).
Diagnosis.
Antenna longer than FW with elongated flagellomeres and elongated scape; ocelli absent; wings ovoid; subcostal veinlets not forked; subcostal area with single
sc-r
crossvein; RP with crossveins irregularly arranged, without distinct gradate series; FW RP1 originating at approximately 1/3 of wing length, M fork from opposite to slightly beyond origin of RP1; HW medial fork at 2/3 of wing length from base to apex; male genitalia with gonarcus narrow with sparse pile; mediuncus (complex of gonocoxites 10
sensu
Martins
et al.
, 2016
) narrow, arched, dorsomedially with a short subquadrate process; parameres (gonocoxites 11
sensu
Martins
et al.
, 2016
) narrow, slightly arched; female genitalia unknown.
Comments.
Navás (1912)
correctly placed
G. adspersus
in
Osmylidae
but a reference by
Hagen (1861)
to
Osmylus longicornis
as a chrysopid based on the elongate antennae proliferated in the literature (e.g.,
Banks, 1907
); the issue was settled by
Adams (1977)
who affirmed the conclusions of
Navás (1912)
and
Krüger (1913b)
that the latter species belonged in
Gumilla
. Two extant species in this genus are known, although
Adams (1977)
suggested that these are likely synonymous.
Martins
et al.
(2016)
recently revised this genus and outlined the confusion regarding the
type
locality of
G
.
longicornis
, which is stated as
Georgia
, but no geographic locality in South America matches that name; it is considered most likely a mislabelling, with the actual
type
locality being in northern South America.
